American Corners

Sponsored by the United States Embassy and Armenian libraries, American Corners Armenia is a joint partnership project that promotes cooperation and understanding between the United States and Armenia by providing open, accurate, and factual information about the United States

The Corners are small, American-style libraries created to help increase mutual understanding between Armenia and the United States by making available information about America in a variety of formats. Membership is free and open to the general public. Each American Corner features a diverse collection of English language books and materials about the United States and is similar to a public library reference service.

There are five American Corners in Armenia -- in Yerevan, Gyumri, Vanadzor, Kapan and Charentsavan. The Corners are staffed by bilingual Armenian library personnel who will be available during regular library hours to assist patrons interested in specific information about the United States.
